Liquid water exhibits a remarkable range of dynamic behaviours and phase transformations that remain at the forefront of scientific investigation. Its complex hydrogen‐bonding network gives rise to ...

Water, this seemingly ordinary molecule, continues to reveal unexpected properties. Scientists have simulated never-before-observed behavior, opening up new perspectives. The team from the University ...

Liquid crystals form a unique state of matter that blends the molecular mobility of liquids with the organised structure of crystalline solids. Their phase transitions, ranging from nematic to smectic ...

Biomedical engineers have developed sophisticated optical techniques to monitor at close range the process by which protein aggregates form during liquid-to-liquid transition. This can lead to solid ...

The melting of materials seems like a simple phenomenon. However, when their thickness is reduced to just a few atoms, ...
